It is a Bridgestone 283. TA set the tire aside because a company rep wants to look at it. I guess they've been having the same problem with a lot of tires. The way I see it, a hole like that makes it that much easier for an object to penetrate the tire if it hits the same exact spot and I don't want to be thinking about that when I'm driving.

You did the right thing. I wouldn't drive around the block on that tire.
